Re[2]: [Dynapi-Dev] compression?

[Joachim L. <lu...@ho...>]

There is a good article about gzip encoding:
http://www.webreference.com/internet/software/servers/http/compression/

Meaning: you should still reference the .js file - if the server can send
the .js.gz file (according to headers in the client request) it tries to do so.

(I left out the discussion about the JAR file which is a totally different
matter.)
